@eest9 Oh no, I'm sorry for you. 😔

I don't think that information was publicly available until quite recently. I watch a lot of science videos and I've never heard of this.

A friend recently told me something about this kind of thing: when a band, a personality, a character has this thing, it's a new death for them. You were named when the clean and brilliant reputation was still alive and only info available. I hope you'll be able to keep the positive aspect of this name.

@davidrevoy I hope so. I'll probably tell the origin story of my name far less in the future and exclusively with a note in regard to this.

Yes, it looks like the oldest mention is a biography from 1990, and it wasn't widely recognized until 2021, when more information about it came public?

@eest9 I don't know. Pages like the French one on Wikipedia doesn't even mention it...

[edit: Someone added the info to the FR wikipedia page 10min ago, thanks! fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?t 👍 ]

@pablor I indeed share the same first name with him, but fortunately I wasn't named after him. @davidrevoy

Pablo Rrrrrrr

@eest9 @davidrevoy Just kidding, of course. You can always do like American Southern lawyers and call yourself E. Ernst.
